RE: Hello! Hello! Group #5: Work-Life Balance After Joining Steemit

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

Hello, hello, @ainie.kashif and all of HHG5 - It's good to be back with a fresh new topic! I'm so sorry to hear that you are taking such terrible strain. Please at @ainie.kashif you need to take it easier and not become too personally involved.

ON THE TOPIC - 01
Work-life balance, what a lovely topic! I usually don't do social media. I don't have a facebook, instagram, twitter - I used to have but no more. Particularly because these sites are so addictive. I'm not wrong, I find it difficult to cope with the damands of Steemit, however as @ainie.kashif has suggested, it's part of a bigger plan.

Sort:  

Glad you are here as I was thinking you were so active in the last HHG4.

ON THE TOPIC 6

I tend to agree with you and I feel I have more plus points than negatives for not having Facebook, instagram etc. Personally for me FB is something like intruding on others private matters and for FB account holders it is like exposing their private life to complete strangers. Please its only my personal thoughts.

As @rlt47 said, I think I saved a lot of time especially in work front due to not involved in FB mainly, even in the case of whats up I used to inactive once in a month or once in two months to get a complete isolation for life from not so useful forwarding messages and silly arguments etc.

And even steemit too seems to be time consuming, but atleast here we have a choice of publishing our creativities and getting paid for it..

@angelro - Yeah, I was active on HHG 4, but my time is over. I had an input to make, and that's what I did. I then saw through the implementation. But, I had a leadership role - I am not the leader. I have a problem with people in life like politicians, who have a leadership role, then just take over...lol!

Correct, many social media platforms don't have any value for the user's. Perhaps just for a handful. But it is really destructive to your life balance. even my whatsapp is on need to do basis. sometimes i only look at messages days later (shameful I know). But for me right now quality of life is very important.

Hai Dear @rlt47...

Why are you thinking your time is over but I am again seeing you so active here too and Keep it up. And when we were talking about the leadership in Steemit why you tend to compare it with political leadership. They are in fact special creatures with registered trade marks such as skin power and making a fool out of their electorates..hehehe..

ON THE TOPIC 12

I am happy I was never ever active into FB, see what unethical things they had done now to the millions of users world wide. But for me it was saving lots of time too which I might had used productively. Even whatsup I again agree with you. Even I prefer to visit a close friend once in a week rather that talking over phone everyday, that makes more intimacy...

I think to make an effective work life balance one should reduce the amount of time spends in FB, Insta etc...

@angelro - I was more active on HHG 4 because I was commenting and managing the changes. yes I don't tend to to distinguish between leadership roles. In principle it can always be exploited no matter how insignificant it is.

Ok...Carry on depends on your prerogatives and preferences...We would always look forward with someone like you, not only in steemit HHG but on that process if something positives can be taken out of it that too be an advantage..

Hello friend!

No social media??? I feel like abandoned my instagram followers since I joined steemit. I have no time to do both.
And Facebook, I need to maintain, that’s how my family in Brazil know that I’m alive.

@xlaylamx - Hello, and welcome back!

The term work-balance is really a tough word to decide what's really important to your life. I understand that social media has it's place and you need Facebook. I not only don't have social media, but i got rid of my television set about 2 years ago. It just takes too much of my time. I rather spend that time writing an article, going for a walk, catching up on Steemit, trying something new. My quality of life has improved greatly.

ON THE TOPIC

I don’t do it tv either.
I rather spend my time steeming now. I will be working from home this week and that will be insteresting, how I will be managing my time between Home, work, and steemit.

That is wonderful, that you are also off television. It is a great disrupter of life balance.

ON TOPIC

each person has the right to choose, it's your choice, keep the spirit and keep it to produce the best content, not all social media is good, sometimes even make us addicted, I've also stopped some of my social media accounts, same as what you feel ............ thanks for sharing

the story is clearly solid and brief @denni.japro

On The Topic

Decisions must be tailored to the struggle.
The struggle requires sacrifice.
Sacrifice requires hard work.
And hard work never betrays results

Sukses terus kawan

@denni.japro - welcome back buddy, glad to see you all in good spirits.

Here is what ex Facebook executive says about social media.

ON THE TOPIC
U are right @rlt47, these sites are time taking, u need lots of time to go through all these sites. Even steemit needs time but it is worth spending time on steemit, u learn lots of things, people are so serious about their job and it is also support you financially. Ainie is right, it’s definitely a bigger plan.😊 n u see, also met so many nice friends on #HHG😊

I agree with this whole convo going on. The reason I have kept my fb and instagram is because computer storage and back up drives soon become so incompatible that I find I have to hack into old ones just to see old pictures. So I just use them to put my pictures up where I know they will stay forever and I can always find them again. Sounds silly but I love having easy access to my pictures as they take me right back to the moment I took it.

Hi @teggit, everyone have their own choice, some people wanna be on social media other may not be. I also use Instagram and Pinterest for fashion related things but I don’t use them for my personal life. So, it’s okay if u are on Instagram as far as u enjoy it.😊I will also follow you on Instagram to see your beautiful dresses. Thank you and stay happy. Steem on!🤗

How do I find you on instagram?

Hello @rlt47, I am back after my long break... and fresh as ever to stimulate our spirit here. I am surprise that most of us don't favor Facebook and Instagram which would mean that we don't like to waste time and really care for our privacy. That's how I see social media now. I don't feel addictive, just feel sometimes tired with drama from many people there. I hate dramas that were put up to take other people's attention. I have been always putting myself as low profile as possible and of course FB is not my cup of tea.
We are here in Steemit working tirelessly to aim for the bigger plan. We shall continue and strive hard to ensure we reach our goal by end of this year. First step to reach end of this year with a more rewarding Steemit... better RP and bigger wallet for all of us.
